Multi-Purpose 4 Mineral Block

Product number: 40177

This economical, self-fed multi-purpose mineral supplement block is ideal for situations where livestock of different species are kept together. The moderate salt levels in the STOCKADE Multi-Purpose 4 Mineral Block means that livestock will eat it more consistently than high-salt options, resulting in better mineral intake. These convenient, weather-resistent blocks don't require costly feeders and can be placed directly on the ground where needed.

CAUTION: Use as directed. Consumption of selenium should not exceed 3 mg per head daily for cattle or horses and not exceed 0.7 mg per head daily for goats.

WARNING: This product, which contains added copper, should not be fed to sheep or any species with a low tolerance to supplemental copper.

Feeding and Management

  1. Feed at a rate of one block per 5 head of cattle or horses and one block per 10 head of goats. This allows all animals equal access to blocks.
  2. Place the blocks where animals congregate. Locate blocks throughout the pasture at loafing, grazing and watering areas. Adequate distance must be maintained between blocks to prevent crowding - 10 feet minimum.
  3. Do not allow animals to run out of blocks. When a block is two-thirds consumed, provide a new block near it. Place very small pieces in a feed pan or trough to be clean up.
  4. Cattle and horses should consume 2 to 4 ounces per head daily. Goats should consume 0.25 to 0.5 ounce per head daily.
  5. Blocks can be fed to animals in confinement. Exact location of block to obtain desired consumption will vary between confinement feeding programs.
  6. Provide fresh, clean water at all times.
